1 EUPHAUSIA SUPERBA OR SALPA THOMPSONI – WHO IS GOING TO WIN?
Antarctic krill Euphausia superba and the salp Salpa thompsoni are major grazers in the Antarctic ecosystem, in which krill plays a major role in the link between primary producers and higher trophic levels. Both species are widely distributed in the Southern Ocean, but they exhibit a spatial segreg...
